Tomato purée, olive oil, garlic and dried spices sit for hours to let the flavours blend in this uncooked pizza sauce. The thickness of the sauce depends on the amount of water used; it should be thick enough to spread and hold on the base.

If you love crispy, woodfire style pizzas, this recipe and cooking technique will give it to you. This dough recipe should make enough for 6 - 8 small pizzas. I use a clean terracotta plant base to cook my pizza on. Dough and sauce can be frozen for use at a later date.
